Agree and agree.

 

I've had my 19YO horse for 10 years. He was a major spooker than and he still is now. After years of riding like this, I can tell you, it is so nice to ride my mare or other gelding who are not by nature spookers. The older I get, the more important it is to be able to just get on a horse and ride down the trail with no issues.
